9.7 Mowing tips
▪ Under certain conditions, such as very tall grass, it may be necessary to raise the cutting
height to reduce resistance (prevent overload of the engine) and leaving clumps of grass
clippings. It may also be necessary to run the lawn mower over the area a second time.
▪ For extremely heavy cutting, reduce the width of cut by over lapping previously cut paths
and mow slowly.
▪ The pores in the cloth grass catcher can become blocked with dirt and dust and will collect
less grass. To prevent this, regularly hose down the grass catcher and let dry before re
using.
▪ Keep the top of the engine (around the starter) clear and clean of grass clippings and
chaff. This will help engine air flow and extend engine life.

These lawn mowers can be retrofitted from its normal function, based on the application
purpose:
▪ From lawn mower with rear discharge to mulching mower or as side-discharge mower.
10.1 What is mulching
When mulching, the grass is cut in one working step, then finely chopped and returned to the
grass strip as natural fertilizer.
Hints for mulch-mowing:
▪ Regular cut-back by max. 2 cm from 6 cm to 4 cm grass height.
▪ Use a sharp cutting knife.
▪ Do not mow wet grass.
▪ Set to max. motor speed.
▪ Only move at working pace.
▪ Regularly clean mulching wedge, housing inner side and mowing blade.
10.2 Different uses
10.2.1 Retrofitting for mulching mower (Fig. 12)
WARNING: only with a stopped motor and standstill cutter.
▪ Blocking the rear discharge port (23) with the mulching plug.
▪ The mulching plug is integrated into rear cover (24). When the rear cover (24) is put down,
the mulching plug will block the rear discharge port.
10.2.2 Resetting for side-discharge mowing (Fig. 13)
WARNING: Ensure the engine is NOT operating when fitting the side
discharge chute (19). Do not operate or have the engine running when the
side ejector cover is opened and the discharge chute is not fitted.
NOTE: The side discharge chute (19) is used to distribute grass clippings
from the side of the mower while the mower is in use. To use this function,
the collect box (5) is NOT required to be assembled on the lawn mower.
